Chapter 101 There wasn't even time to eat.



While waiting, Boss Su began to look around the entire living room.

The classroom is definitely different from home.

His gaze was first drawn to the antique solid wood desk in the center of the living room, on which a Duan inkstone was neatly arranged.

Several simple yet textured calligraphy brushes lean against a blue-and-white porcelain brush holder, with Xuan paper laid out flat, as if the owner had just finished writing and leaving.

On the wall behind the desk hangs a powerful and vigorous calligraphy work, with strokes as fluid as dragons and snakes, displaying the style of a master.

Such skill in calligraphy is not something that can be achieved in a day or two.

It seems that Principal Liu is an amateur calligraphy enthusiast.

A bamboo rocking chair sits by the window, and a set of purple clay teaware sits on a small tea table next to it. The teapot has a warm, smooth surface and emits a faint aroma of tea.

Opposite the rocking chair is a solid wood bookcase, filled with various thread-bound books.

Because of the distance, he couldn't see very clearly, except for the book "Dream of the Red Chamber," which he could see very clearly.

He seems to be a fan of "Dream of the Red Chamber" studies, just like his father.

However, it is truly rare for someone of Principal Liu's age to have such a hobby.

Unlike him, who couldn't concentrate on watching, he inherited his mother's interest in business from a young age.

In the corner of the living room, there is a blue and white porcelain vase with a few elegant plum blossoms in it, adding a touch of tranquility to the entire living room.

Although they are artificial flowers, they still bring a sense of elegance and purity.

A thick floor mat with an exquisite pattern and calming colors was laid on the ground at the entrance.

On the wall directly opposite the entrance hangs a family photo. The girl in the photo is innocent and lovely, and a young couple with gentle smiles are holding the girl, revealing the harmony and warmth of the family.

The young couple must be Principal Liu and his wife, and the little girl in the photo must be Xiao Yu's wife!

Just by looking at the photos, you can tell what the little girl will look like when she grows up; she'll definitely be pure and elegant.

I didn't expect Xiao Yu to have such good taste.

The sofa has an old-fashioned wooden frame with soft cotton cushions; it's not luxurious, but it's exceptionally comfortable.

On the small table next to the sofa, there was a copy of the People's Daily, and on top of the newspaper was a pair of gold-rimmed glasses.

As expected of an intellectual, reading the newspaper every day is an essential part of his work.

On the TV cabinet opposite the sofa, a black and white television stood quietly; it looked to be about 17 inches.

Indeed, they are a family of scholars, truly living up to their reputation!

I just don't understand why a family like that would take a liking to that country boy, Xiao Yu!

Although that young man was somewhat clever, he was probably not good enough for a family like that…

While Su Minghua was wondering, Yu Chengyuan came out of the kitchen.

"Mr. Su, how did you end up at my father-in-law and mother-in-law's house?"

"Is there something urgent?"

Yu Chengyuan was also unsure, wondering what had gotten into him so urgently at this time. He wondered if the crayfish had died.

That shouldn't be happening!

"Yes, of course there's an emergency. Luckily you didn't leave."

Here's the thing: Yesterday, Director Zhu of the Forestry Bureau tried the spicy crayfish and thought it tasted great, so he recommended that his nephew hold his wedding banquet at our restaurant.

Twenty tables in the morning, ten tables in the afternoon.

That's a big order!

Congratulations, Mr. Su.

"So you came to me because you didn't have enough vegetables?"

If there aren't enough vegetables, he can go back and get more; there's still time.

However, there aren't enough vegetables. Boss Su can go to the state-run market to scavenge some; that should be enough. The state-run market can't possibly be sold out.

There's no need to rush to find yourself, is there?

Yu Chengyuan thought to himself, but smiled and said congratulatory words.

"We don't have enough vegetables either, but I can figure out a way to get those. However, the most important thing is not vegetables, but crayfish."

There aren't enough crayfish...

Could you send me a few dozen kilograms of crayfish this afternoon?

Su Minghua asked directly.

"Boss Su, didn't I just deliver fifty catties of crayfish to you this morning?"

You only have thirty tables for the banquet, and each table has one plate of crayfish, each plate containing one jin (500 grams), so that's only thirty jin.

The remaining twenty catties will be used for the other customers; that should be about enough for today!

After all, today is only the first day, and everyone just found out about spicy crayfish. It's impossible for it to become a hit on the first day.

"Not enough, not enough. Director Zhu said that two plates of spicy crayfish per table might not be enough."

Two jin per table, that's sixty jin, which is definitely not enough.

There will definitely be other customers ordering that dish at lunchtime, so it won't be enough.

so………"

"I understand what you mean. You don't have enough crayfish, so you want me to make another trip this afternoon to bring you some more?"

Yu Chengyuan asked with a smile.

"Yes, yes, Brother Xiao, that's exactly what I meant."

That's why I drove here to find you myself.

"If Master Wang hadn't told me you went to your mother-in-law's house, I wouldn't have been able to find you!"

Su Minghua nodded repeatedly.

"Then I'll go again with my brother this afternoon."

Besides crayfish, do you want anything else?

For example, eels, grass carp, and bighead carp.

Should we send some vegetables?

How many kilograms of crayfish are you sending?

Yu Chengyuan never expected that Boss Su would receive such a big order because of crayfish.

"Yes, yes, brother Xiao Yu, I'll take all of these you've mentioned."

Please send another 50 jin of crayfish, and also 20 jin of tomatoes, 30 jin of cauliflower, 30 jin of cucumbers, and 30 jin each of green and red peppers.

Since it's urgent, I'll give you double the price for vegetables. I'll charge you 40 cents for peppers and tomatoes, and 30 cents for the rest. How does that sound?
